Choosing a face-flattering glasses style is easy if you know these simple tips

Back in the day, wearing glasses was like receiving a “you-can-forget-dating” life sentence. Script calls for a nerd? Slap some glasses on the actor and, poof, instant four-eyed geek-cred. And, so, of course, many of us hid our near-sighted shame behind contact lenses, relegating our glasses to middle of the night trips to the bathroom and sick days only.
